Design Consultation - CAD $425.00
Our most popular starting point. We visit your space, photograph current conditions, measure dimensions, and interview you about your craft, typical projects, and pain points. Within one week, you receive a detailed report including:
- Annotated floor plan showing current layout inefficiencies
- Proposed workflow optimization with movement pattern analysis
- Storage requirement assessment based on your tool inventory
- Lighting and electrical recommendations
- Phased implementation plan if budget is a constraint
This consultation forms the foundation for any subsequent work. Many clients implement our recommendations themselves, while others engage us for the construction phase.
Storage Systems - CAD $875.50
Custom storage designed around your actual tools, not generic pegboard layouts. We catalog your equipment, then design and build systems that keep everything accessible while maximizing floor space. This service includes:
- Complete tool inventory and categorization
- Custom cabinet or shelving design
- Material selection and sourcing
- Professional installation
- Labeling and organization system
Storage solutions vary dramatically based on your craft. Woodworkers need different systems than mechanics, who need different approaches than electronics enthusiasts. We build what you need, not what worked for the last client.
Workflow Optimization - CAD $595.75
Sometimes the physical space is adequate, but the arrangement fights against efficient work. This service focuses purely on layout redesign:
- Time-motion study of your typical workflow
- Workstation positioning analysis
- Tool placement strategy to minimize unnecessary movement
- Material staging area design
- Waste management integration
The goal is reducing fatigue and wasted motion. Small adjustments often yield significant improvements in how quickly you complete projects and how much energy you retain through a full work session.
Safety Assessment - CAD $340.25
Workshop safety extends beyond wearing goggles. Our assessment examines the environmental factors that contribute to accidents:
- Electrical system inspection for proper grounding and capacity
- Ventilation adequacy for your specific activities
- Lighting evaluation at all workstations
- Emergency egress planning
- Fire suppression recommendations
- First aid station setup guidance
We provide a detailed report with prioritized action items. Some issues require immediate attention; others represent gradual improvements you can address over time.
Complete Workshop Build - CAD $3,850.00
Full-service workshop construction for clients starting from an empty space or completely renovating an existing area. This comprehensive service includes:
- Complete space planning and architectural design
- Permit acquisition and building code compliance
- Foundation and framing work
- Electrical installation with adequate capacity for equipment
- Climate control system selection and installation
- Built-in workbenches and fixed equipment mounting
- Lighting system installation
- Initial storage system implementation
Timeline typically runs 4-8 weeks depending on space size and complexity. We coordinate all trades and manage the entire build process so you focus on planning what you'll create once the space is ready.
Maintenance Plan - CAD $185.00 per quarter
Workshops evolve. New tools arrive, old equipment gets retired, projects change focus. Our quarterly maintenance visits keep your organization system functioning:
- Review of current storage effectiveness
- Adjustments to accommodate new equipment
- Repair or replacement of worn organization elements
- Workflow check-in to identify emerging inefficiencies
- Safety equipment inspection
Think of this as preventive maintenance for your workspace. Small tweaks prevent the gradual slide back into disorganization that plagues many workshops over time.
Getting Started
Most clients begin with a Design Consultation. This gives us both a clear understanding of your needs and provides you with actionable information even if you decide not to proceed with additional services.
